> WTF do I put on my resume?

Start by changing that to "What do I put on my resume?".

Your resume does not end at the bottom of an A4 or Letter page. Your resume includes how you present yourself, and ill-placed vulgarities are far more telling than "HTML, CSS, Javascript, PHP" are on a few lines of ink.

That's a good point. I've never been agains making well placed swearing part of a professional brand. It tends to communicate honesty* and takes people's walls down.

Though I'll admit that particular WTF doesn't add anything, and was mostly an expression of the frustration of embarking upon converting my existing marketing/design resume to reflect my current skill set.
